Top Ten Tuesday: Feasting With Authors

What authors would I want to invite to my Thanksgiving feast? This is the question today over at The Broke and the Bookish, and I'm thinking that you all know already who I'd like to invite! Do I even need to do this post!!? :) Well, just for fun, I throw in a few you probably are not expecting.

Top Ten Authors I'd Love to Feast With

(and I've decided to limit my authors to living ones,

as if that could make the fantasy come true or something)

1. John Green

of course, because he's so cute and funny

and intelligent and witty,

and yes I love the puff.

2. Neal Shusterman,

because he seems so nice and

smart and cool

3. Judy Blume,

just to make sure we have some class and experience included

4. Robin McKinley,

because she seems so eccentric and interesting

5. Avi,

because he's a mystery

and I'd like to see what he's all about

6. Megan Whelan Turner,

because I want to know the person

that created a character like Gen

7. Patrick Rothfuss,

because we need one of those epic fantasy types in the mix

and he seems like fun

8. Patrick Ness,

because it would be interesting to see what he's really like,

and if he's anything like his books! That might actually be kinda scary.

9. Janette Rallison,

just because she would keep us laughing

and because I could see us being friends in real life

10. And finally, hmmm.... I wonder who it could be... oh, right...

Markus Zusak!

Because. Well, because he's by far the coolest author ever.

Yeah, liked I'd be able to eat if ANY of these authors showed up for Thanksgiving!

John Green made my list too. I went to hear him speak the other day and he said something about meeting Judy Blume and calling her an icon. She responded by saying something like, I'm so sick of being called an icon! I thought that was hilarious.

Wow, what a ride. When an invisible barrier suddenly descends on this small town, how will the people handle things? Let's just say... not very well! Would it be giving away too much if I say... pretty much EVERYONE dies! And all written in...
